I also remember it (the bar at the Holiday Inn) as a night spot in the early 70's. and seeing Patsy Cline's tour bus parked out front and that was early 60's.

Wow, Patsy Cline was huge. That Holiday Inn must have been quite a spot back then. Thanks for the historical perspective.

yeah, I would like to see something a bit taller here too, but I imagine a building that size may have been a bit optimistic for this spot. Which I can understand... considering that the demand for apartments will also be met by the EDDC-sponsored project a block north at 5th & State/Peach, and that these smaller buildings are a more appropriate fit for the adjacent 1830s-50s structures on the block.
